You can already see how your TH-cam videos are benefiting from the new studio. Really like the lighting and the two different angles when you are talking. Next level unlocked - lets goo!
Been using the zve1 for a few months now. I absolutely love it. The only 2 issues I have are dynamic stabilization from side to side sucks. Forward and backwards it’s fine. 2nd thing I dont like is the screen when flipped out fully in horizontal isnt fully flush flat. This makes keeping the camera straight while shooting handheld difficult. Mine has no overheating issues. Filmed an automotive event mid summer in 87° heat and it was fine. I’d buy this camera again if I had to.
thanks for the video! do you have to go through the menus to switch between resolution/frame rates and the different stabilization modes, or is there a quick way to do it?
Hows is the viewer / back monitor looks in bright sunny weather ??? I live in South Spain with extreme clear day sunlight will you be able to see the back folding monitor well a to see detail in the filming ??? I think you will be the first TH-cam reviewer to mention about it ???. I have always used old type viewfinders . Thanks and keep up the good work ...👍
Hey man -- love your content. Thanks for all the value and laughs you bring. Just wanted to chime in briefly on the SM7B. Your voice seems particularly prone to plosives. If you use the other, fatter windscreen that comes with the mic, it'll reduce them significantly. Might be worth a shot.
Thanks for the great review! So torn now between upgrading my A6400 to the FX30 and using all my existing crop sensor lenses, or trying this! And agree with the others: your studio looks fantastic and your stuff is always entertaining, funny, and informative. And it makes me want to visit Iceland!
Thanks mark! I’m super suprised by this camera, it’s fantastic. I’d say this over the fx30. But probably just depends on what you’re looking for. Great thing with Sony is that both apsc and ff have E mount. So you can use all the lenses on all the cameras.
@@conjureconquercreate909 so yea if you want to film short films fx30 is a great choice. For me and the types of videos I make this would make more sense. I can only speak from my own personal experience. I did record a video where I used it as a b cam, and it was on for over 40minutes in 4K 25fps and it wasn’t a problem at all
@@thaticelandicguy Would it be possible to do a video on what it looks like with apsc lenses on the ZV-E1? How much crop has to be applied to make that work? And how are the results in terms of bokeh and does it affect exposure in any other way? One of the things that have been stopping me from getting a newer apsc is that I *know* down the line I'll be getting a full frame, and what I have access to now in terms of gear "works" (even though getting a "gap-stop" camera like one of the 6000 series would make my day/work easier) - but if a transition from what I have now to a ZV-E1 could be stepped by getting a A6000 series camera and a couple of apsc lenses that, when going ZV-E1, could for a time give nice results while saving up for a couple of full frame lenses, then that might be a real option :)
@@AndreSjoberg Yea, could do that. i've already sent the camera back to sony. But I liked it so much that I'm going to buy it once it get in the stores for sure. Then I can create more videos with it! :)
People are mistakenly comparing this to the A7s3. This is aimed at people that produce content. Not at professionals. Almost every feature the ZV-e10 offers can be done in post. It does not offer redundant recording options. It does not have good heat management. This is a great camera for people just getting into video production, not for people that make their living off it.
Wanted to go for the a7s3. I'll be making cinematics and short films.. should I go for this instead since it has literally all the same features as the a7s3?? Other than quicker overheating (because of small body) and small hdmi (no atomos ninja V monitor? 😭)
Thanks for the great review! I currently have the Sony ZVE10 and A74, I do both photography and videography, do you think it makes sense to sell the a74 and buy the new zve1?
@@thaticelandicguy, yeah agree. Nice video. Been following you for awhile and love seeing you grow your channel and content continues to get higher quality! I have both the A7S3 and A74 and am good. If Sony doesn’t give the new features, no worries. If they do, bonus. The A74 is a hybrid cam and has good balance between photos and video. It has CF Express A and dual memory card slot which I need a back up. And the mechanical shutter and EVF is a must. When I need 4K60/120 uncropped, the A7S3 fills that void. And both cams are way good enough with their AF and stabilization systems so the ZV-E1 improvements are nice to have features. I guess the ZV-E1 is for video only shooters who want smaller form factor and all the latest new features and don’t need EVF, don’t need dual memory card slots, and don’t need mechanical shutter. I hope Sony follows through on the 4K120 and HD240 as they said they would. I still have my A9 for fast action shooting and wildlife and Sony promised picture profile and never gave it. I also shoot with Canon R5/5C and Canon screwed up on the latest firmware update. Rumored for removal of 30min recording limit and better AF like the R3 and instead gave updates for 480MP but only in JPEG. Who shoots JPEG for architecture and landscape professionally. Looks like both Sony and Canon are being stingy with firmware updates so Pana and Nikon needs to take advantage of this and gain market share. Competition will keep everyone honest.
does it shoot stills ? can the sony log and indwelling LUTs be used as presets to shoot still images ,in the still image shooting mode?thanks ...regards...
Hi, I'm your fan from Tanzania i have always wish to have a better camera to improve my game in content creation as of now i am using my old sony rx100m3 i was wondering how much will the zv-e1 cost and when will it be available. Cause i am trying to find something good at budget
Someone please explain me why this camera has only 12MP where as zv E10 comes with 24MP? I don't have very good knowledge about camera. Is megapixel really low compared to price? Many thanks
I like to film travel videos hotels etc in warm climates walking around the hotel grounds etc and am concerned this will overheat in 10 mins in some cases. I am waiting for real world reviews in warm climates before deciding on this, I’ve got a feeling we will get big complaints about overheating. There’s also a sneaky suspicion the 120fps was left out so overheating wouldn’t hit the pre release reviews as much. Otherwise it appears to be a fantastic camera and I’d really like to try it out and compare to my Nikon which I love.
hey, thanks for the review. Im about to by a camera, A7sIII. when this camera introduced I was shocked and start rethink about it. The A7sIII has an offer $2600 US dollars (brand new) which keep it close to this camera price. what is your advice?
same sensor, it's just what would you like more? Smaller camera with less buttons and only one sd card, it will also have some featurs the 7sii wont have. Or you want a slightly bigger camera, and you will get more buttons, evf and two sd cards slot? It just comes down to what you prefer, both will give you top image quality
Yeah i think people don't realise how revolutionary this camera is, this tiny thing can do the same footage as an FX3 (netflix approved camera) for half the price all with weighing much less.
@@conjureconquercreate909 yeah I know about the overheating time, honestly in 1080 it won't be a problem, and who films something for 1 hours in 4k, very few people.
Im not sponsored by Sony, and this video was not sponsored. I filmed with it straight for over 40m in 4K 25fps and it was no problem. My friend did 60min 4K 25fps and then straight 30min 50fps and it didn’t stop working due to over heating. I can make an over heating video when I get it. I’ve already sent mine back to Sony but I liked it so much that I’m buying it.
@@thaticelandicguy I'm not saying you are but some of the other videos did the heat test on 24/25 fps in cool weather in the shade to make the camera look good for sony. Thats not a realistic heat test. if people are outside filming in the summer it will be a lot warmer. I'd be curious how long it last at 60fps. If it over heats fast people need to know. thanks
Be careful this guy is the ultimate seller. A great Sony spokesman. This is a Sony commercial. Every new camera Sony sends him is completely mind blowing. 😮😂
Lol 😂 I’m just a Sony fan, but this camera is epic, same sensor as a7siii but cheaper and smaller, what’s not to like? And Sony did not pay me to say anything, I didn't even get to keep the camera
Would rather spend 2k and get professional features in the S5ii, IBIs, dual card slots, heat management, full size HDMI… and save $300. All the software features seem like glitter to justify the short comings
@@CREATEEDUCATEINSPIREyep, me too, so much smoke and mirrors about this camera. I'd rather save up for an FX3 or A7Siii than this. S5ii is unbeatable bang for buck. 😊👍
@@Spencer_White bro that’s an AI camera that will adjust and re adjust that will make your hand held video good as a gimbal 😮😮 as an a7siii owner I want this
I never knew that, Yo hvað er eiginlega að frétta, meant, Yo, what's the news! One of the better overviews of the ZV-E1 that I watched today. Pretty smart camera, too baller for me though. Keep up the sweet vids and reviews!
You’re an OG! Haven’t said that in a long time 😂🤘🏻 I mean this basically the same camera as the a7siii except smaller body with less buttons and no evf. But with some other features in it that the siii doesn’t have. Image quality is top notch and I was really surprised by it. Especially because it’s so freaking small.
Pro or hobby? That is the deciding factor. If you make money with it you need the dual card slots and heat management. If not Why spend extra for features you don't need.
A real powerhouse! Might pick this up! Btw Im soon starting up my youtube channel and "returning" to tiktok and inst. Going full time in June! But will start a bit before that. Wish me luck!
I don’t like the fact that Sony don’t release firmware updates as they should compared to other brands like Fujifilm and Panasonic. My A7RIV and A7SIII have not had any firmware update for long time. Does the Z1 E1 heat up continuous recording ?
@@aaronmoe12 I should have tried it myself you are right. But I filmed a few other videos with it and used it as b cam, it was on recording in 4K 25fps over 40minutea no problem. The reason I didn’t test it was just that I didn’t experience it at all so I wasn’t thinking about it. I was just excited to get a as7iii sensor in such a small body
Great review and a fascinating camera. Sony is innovating sooooo fast. My fave part, though is that your hat color matches your beard. That's just classy (even if my guess is that you changed the hat color in post, LOL).
So … all we need now is a «camera shake»-feature for the auto-framing feature so it looks like we have friends? Add a talking AI/assistant to the camera and we’re all set ;) Thanks for a great walkthrough of the main points of the new camera, it looks like I don’t have to spend *as much* money on my first proper camera as I originally thought :)
lol this made me laugh haha. But I agree with you, many people complain about the price being to high. Imo you're getting a camera that has the same quality as A7Siii (that's really hq footage), but for a lot less money. I think this will open the door to higher quality footage for a lot fo people.
@@thaticelandicguy Totally agree with you on the quality vs. price, and a lot of people complaining are *really* saying "it's too much money for me" but disguise it with "It's too expensive". I'm still going to have to save up for a while to get it, but it's a lot less to save up compared to the A7S3 and crazy expensive memory cards +++, but that's life :)
Photo/videographers question why Sony doesn't offer updates on their current cameras. What do you know the new processor(s) in this body vs. the A7III/IV, A7SIII, etc.? Glad I remember my Roman numerals.
So i heard Sony is potentially also announcing something new in the APSC range, should i be holding off on buying an a6400 for a few weeks to see what happens? NDAs aren't that serious, right?
Lol 😂 I’m not 100% sure but I think they’re not going to make more a6xxx but I could be wrong. Just the trend has been towards these vlog cameras. However this zve1 is seriously epic for filming. Like incredible and it will cost muuuuuch less than a7siii
@@thaticelandicguy Yeah I'm concentrating more of the photography angle to start with, love the look of these small cinema line cams though if i ever want to explore that side of things.
That depends on what you are doing with it. Are you looking for a camera with top of the line autofocus and using the Emount lenses with a good upgrade path. At this price the ZV-e1 might be for you. Do you take pictures? then the s5ii or a74 Do you need pro features? Heat resilience, dual card slots, Full size HDMI, View finder. Then the s5ii or a74 The deciding factor between the s5ii and a74 is if you need open gate for social media (s5ii) and if not what lens system you want to marry into. With the a74 you get access to the full line of APSC G lenses 11mm and 15mm which are phenomenal lenses for the cost. Like everything in life the answer is "it depends"
S5ii… if you want to have a camera you can rig into a cine rig, Sony cam if you want an amazing tiny cam that you won’t rig out. I would never do a paid client gig without dual card slots backing up the footage.
Well I get it’s a lot, but comparing it to what it has and other cameras it’s a great price. Sony A7siii is twice the price. But cameras and photography ain’t a cheap hobby unfortunately:/
@@thaticelandicguy I just thought you should mention the price in your review. No hard feeling. I’m a fuji girl anyway :) You should do a comparison video between this and the FX30 one day.
@@hipabroad That's a great idea. I usuallt don't mention prices, because they change, and differ between countries, and it's easy for people to look them up by them selfs. Hope you can forgive that haha. That's a great idea! WIll do that for sure. I've filmed a zve10 vs zve1 lol, the latter is obv better but it was fun to see the comparison
It's overheating in 4k on 60fps after 40min above 24 degrees. Defently not the perfect vlog camera on Professional base or to travel in warm countries but rather a vlog camera for the amateur who wants some better images. The FX30 is better because it has a fan and the price for the zve1 camera is exaggerated but may have been worth it if there was a fan in it. Sony made a mistake to call it a pro vlog camera because it is not usable in all weather conditions. Who wants a camera that is just overheated while vlogging or traveling?
Ok so I don’t work for Sony, I’m not their customer support nor did I get paid to say anything in this video. But Imma jump in quickly here. 1. I haven’t had any issues with it over heating. Not saying it can’t, just that I haven’t. 2. Having two cards is better for sure. But I’ve shot so so much with a single card camera, and I can say, it’s alright. 3. It’s a bit plasticky for sure, but honestly feels good. Have you held one? 4. Seeing that this is really a video camera then an evf is not really needed. Dunno about you but when I’m filming I never use the evf. 5. Just realised I answered the last question first lol.
I don’t see your point? If you mean that it’s the same as a7siii then I see it’s as a massive pro that they put this sensor in more cameras. They clearly designed this insane sensor that can be sold to suit different people and price points. This camera enables many to get a7siii level of quality for much less money. We always have to think about everyone’s budget and needs are different.
@@thaticelandicguy for the money, the S5ii is soo much more bang for the buck. It’s pro level that can handle the situations I’m in to make a living. Weddings/ Realestate/ documentary… couldn’t imagine a ZV-E1 in those situation
Did you lost your mind??? in 2 months all channels: why i returned the zv-e1 No.1 reason: micro hdmi No.2 cropping in new features No.3 doesn't look professional for professional job No.4 overheats now, imagine in summer time...and so on..... 2100 $ for a gimmick camera, no thank you No. (85%, 1,004 Votes) Yes! (15%, 173 Votes)
Doesn’t look professional is the worst comment I’ve seen in a long time lol. I’ve shot multiple professional events with a Sony a6400 (both photos and videos) and not once has anyone said something about my camera not looking professional enough
@@thaticelandicguy I'm subscribed to at least 80 camera review channels, i know the pattern...i know exactly who is truly professional and who is not, some of them are just testers, not professional photographers, or videographers...they just imagine they are...look at all the reviewers: what groundbreaking images they do? and yet they test photo cameras....98% of them can't sell one print with their images, or be in exhibition...how many of them have a true cover of a magazine??? and by the way you answered: i liked you more when you were 3000 subscribers and loved a6400
@@strippedlist again, this is not a photo camera, so there is no need to talk about prints? I filmed a whole lot with it and didn’t have any over heating issues. Not saying that it doesn’t, just I have not experienced it. I’m sorry that you are mad, I hope you are in a good place in life and enjoying it. If not, and your in a bad place then feel free to shoot me a dm on Instagram and we can talk. Take care.
@@thaticelandicguy Vloggers on youtube do studio work, they post 8 bit on youtube.... So i would buy a6400 plus 3 lenses for the same price, new features in zv-e1 needs crop, and in auto... And Vloggers outside can't use it... Overheats after 5 minutes 4k 60... Dan Watson review...so, old stuff repacked with "ai features", old screen, no evf, photo is meh... A6400 plus 3 lenses or A7c plus one lens or two.. You won't see the difference on youtube, tik tok or Instagram... But i sleep better
Wait, does this mean that I payed 1500€ extra for the A7SIII just to get an extra memory card slot? 🥲 Very impressive camera indeed, although I'm not exactly sure who it's for 🤷♂ I would imagine that "vloggers" buying a camera at this price point would expect it to be a one stop shop for everything, but the 12 MP doesn't really cut it for photos in my opinion. It's starting to get really confusing to know which sony camera to get these days 😂
So this camera isn't a photo camera at all. It doesn't even have a EVF, which i rely on a lot for photography. But yea the A7siii has CF card reader, two memory slots, probably better heat management? A bigger grip that some people like, but on the other hand the E1 is smaller that some people will also prefer
What a sick camera? BTW all music and and sfx comes from Artlist (get 2 months extra with this link) - bit.ly/2DS2LRK

You’re an OG! Haven’t said that in a long time 😂🤘🏻
I mean this basically the same camera as the a7siii except smaller body with less buttons and no evf. But with some other features in it that the siii doesn’t have.
Image quality is top notch and I was really surprised by it. Especially because it’s so freaking small.
What about compared to the S5II?
Am confused 😢should go for the fx30 or the Sony ev 1 full frame
Pro or hobby? That is the deciding factor. If you make money with it you need the dual card slots and heat management. If not Why spend extra for features you don't need.
A real powerhouse! Might pick this up! Btw Im soon starting up my youtube channel and "returning" to tiktok and inst. Going full time in June! But will start a bit before that. Wish me luck!
I don’t like the fact that Sony don’t release firmware updates as they should compared to other brands like Fujifilm and Panasonic. My A7RIV and A7SIII have not had any firmware update for long time.
Does the Z1 E1 heat up continuous recording ?
My friend did a over heating test and with the screen open it didn’t really over heat
What kind of answer is this? It didn’t really overheat.
@@aaronmoe12 I should have tried it myself you are right. But I filmed a few other videos with it and used it as b cam, it was on recording in 4K 25fps over 40minutea no problem.
The reason I didn’t test it was just that I didn’t experience it at all so I wasn’t thinking about it.
I was just excited to get a as7iii sensor in such a small body
Which wide lense would be best for this camera but at the same time keep the small and compact feeling?
Hmmmm sony 16-35 pz? I have the sigma 16-28 2.8 very happy with that and it’s not so big
Thank you! Btw, did you shoot any photos with it? How did it perform? Any examples?
Sony 20-70mm f4 seems like a really cool combo.
Great review and a fascinating camera. Sony is innovating sooooo fast. My fave part, though is that your hat color matches your beard. That's just classy (even if my guess is that you changed the hat color in post, LOL).
My beanie? It’s actually the same color irl, thought it was epic lol
1:02 smaller than the Sigma FP?
So … all we need now is a «camera shake»-feature for the auto-framing feature so it looks like we have friends? Add a talking AI/assistant to the camera and we’re all set ;) Thanks for a great walkthrough of the main points of the new camera, it looks like I don’t have to spend *as much* money on my first proper camera as I originally thought :)
lol this made me laugh haha. But I agree with you, many people complain about the price being to high. Imo you're getting a camera that has the same quality as A7Siii (that's really hq footage), but for a lot less money. I think this will open the door to higher quality footage for a lot fo people.
@@thaticelandicguy Totally agree with you on the quality vs. price, and a lot of people complaining are *really* saying "it's too much money for me" but disguise it with "It's too expensive". I'm still going to have to save up for a while to get it, but it's a lot less to save up compared to the A7S3 and crazy expensive memory cards +++, but that's life :)
Does this shoot 120fps 10bit in 1080p format not S&Q mode bcoz that does not record audio 😶
Atm it can’t shoot 120fps it will come this summer in a firmware update so I’m not sure what they will do
@@thaticelandicguy Okk
I love Iceland i love tech there for i subbed ❤
Does this have weather sealing?
I’m honestly not sure sorry, but I’m guessing so
None of the other ZV cameras do, so I would think not. Also didn't see that on the spec sheet and they usually have that highlighted.
Photo/videographers question why Sony doesn't offer updates on their current cameras. What do you know the new processor(s) in this body vs. the A7III/IV, A7SIII, etc.? Glad I remember my Roman numerals.
Unfortunately I’m not Sony customer support and so have no insights or idea why 😂
So i heard Sony is potentially also announcing something new in the APSC range, should i be holding off on buying an a6400 for a few weeks to see what happens? NDAs aren't that serious, right?
Lol 😂 I’m not 100% sure but I think they’re not going to make more a6xxx but I could be wrong. Just the trend has been towards these vlog cameras.
However this zve1 is seriously epic for filming. Like incredible and it will cost muuuuuch less than a7siii
@@thaticelandicguy Yeah I'm concentrating more of the photography angle to start with, love the look of these small cinema line cams though if i ever want to explore that side of things.
Best review of the ZV-E1
Thank you so much ☺️
I hate Sony but I also love them. Just bought the FX30 :(
The fx30 is great! Use it!
Is Lumix s5 ii still the best camera for just $2000??
That depends on what you are doing with it.
Are you looking for a camera with top of the line autofocus and using the Emount lenses with a good upgrade path. At this price the ZV-e1 might be for you.
Do you take pictures? then the s5ii or a74
Do you need pro features? Heat resilience, dual card slots, Full size HDMI, View finder. Then the s5ii or a74
The deciding factor between the s5ii and a74 is if you need open gate for social media (s5ii) and if not what lens system you want to marry into. With the a74 you get access to the full line of APSC G lenses 11mm and 15mm which are phenomenal lenses for the cost.
Like everything in life the answer is "it depends"
@@Average1212 Thank you 🙂👍🏽
S5ii… if you want to have a camera you can rig into a cine rig, Sony cam if you want an amazing tiny cam that you won’t rig out. I would never do a paid client gig without dual card slots backing up the footage.
As a PHOTOGRAPHER I find this release... underwelming.
Yea well it’s not a photography camera at all
My man is in Iceland in Winter, shoots outdoors, says no overheating... Everything's fine, just get through his affiliate link and dump the cash......
But THE MOST important aspect is THE PRICE!!!! Not accessible or budget for a beginner I’m afraid 😂
Well I get it’s a lot, but comparing it to what it has and other cameras it’s a great price. Sony A7siii is twice the price.
But cameras and photography ain’t a cheap hobby unfortunately:/
Ok a7siii ain’t twice the price but it’s a lot more expensive, and I like the zve1 a lot more tbh
@@thaticelandicguy I just thought you should mention the price in your review. No hard feeling. I’m a fuji girl anyway :)
You should do a comparison video between this and the FX30 one day.
@@hipabroad That's a great idea. I usuallt don't mention prices, because they change, and differ between countries, and it's easy for people to look them up by them selfs. Hope you can forgive that haha.
That's a great idea! WIll do that for sure. I've filmed a zve10 vs zve1 lol, the latter is obv better but it was fun to see the comparison
Stills?
It can do it, but I think it’s pretty bad at them, or like it’s not a photography camera. If you want that get an other one imo
Fx30 it is for me
Good call!
It's overheating in 4k on 60fps after 40min above 24 degrees. Defently not the perfect vlog camera on Professional base or to travel in warm countries but rather a vlog camera for the amateur who wants some better images. The FX30 is better because it has a fan and the price for the zve1 camera is exaggerated but may have been worth it if there was a fan in it. Sony made a mistake to call it a pro vlog camera because it is not usable in all weather conditions. Who wants a camera that is just overheated while vlogging or traveling?
Wait till the a7cii is out
you think they will make an even smaller full frame? Hahaha that would be something, ZV-1 but fullframe
@@thaticelandicguy I don't know about smaller but higher resolution, viewfinder and the flip tilt screen. It's going to be so sweet!
you have to need 4k 120 to spend this money on this single card, plastic, no evf, overheating camera.
Ok so I don’t work for Sony, I’m not their customer support nor did I get paid to say anything in this video. But Imma jump in quickly here.
1. I haven’t had any issues with it over heating. Not saying it can’t, just that I haven’t.
2. Having two cards is better for sure. But I’ve shot so so much with a single card camera, and I can say, it’s alright.
3. It’s a bit plasticky for sure, but honestly feels good. Have you held one?
4. Seeing that this is really a video camera then an evf is not really needed. Dunno about you but when I’m filming I never use the evf.
5. Just realised I answered the last question first lol.
"best camera of 2023?"....... this guy....
Sony did not pay you at all from the sound of the first 15 seconds of the video
Huh? I’m not paid by Sony, that’s why I put an Artlist ad in there
Sony money grab to clear out extra sensors🤷🏼♂️
I don’t see your point? If you mean that it’s the same as a7siii then I see it’s as a massive pro that they put this sensor in more cameras. They clearly designed this insane sensor that can be sold to suit different people and price points. This camera enables many to get a7siii level of quality for much less money. We always have to think about everyone’s budget and needs are different.
@@thaticelandicguy for the money, the S5ii is soo much more bang for the buck. It’s pro level that can handle the situations I’m in to make a living. Weddings/ Realestate/ documentary… couldn’t imagine a ZV-E1 in those situation
Did you lost your mind???
in 2 months all channels: why i returned the zv-e1
No.1 reason: micro hdmi
No.2 cropping in new features
No.3 doesn't look professional for professional job
No.4 overheats now, imagine in summer time...and so on.....
2100 $ for a gimmick camera, no thank you

Doesn’t look professional is the worst comment I’ve seen in a long time lol. I’ve shot multiple professional events with a Sony a6400 (both photos and videos) and not once has anyone said something about my camera not looking professional enough
@@thaticelandicguy I'm subscribed to at least 80 camera review channels, i know the pattern...i know exactly who is truly professional and who is not, some of them are just testers, not professional photographers, or videographers...they just imagine they are...look at all the reviewers: what groundbreaking images they do? and yet they test photo cameras....98% of them can't sell one print with their images, or be in exhibition...how many of them have a true cover of a magazine??? and by the way you answered: i liked you more when you were 3000 subscribers and loved a6400
@@thaticelandicguy and look dan watson video: overheated and recorded only 5 minutes of 4 k 60...professional you say?!!!
@@strippedlist again, this is not a photo camera, so there is no need to talk about prints?
I filmed a whole lot with it and didn’t have any over heating issues. Not saying that it doesn’t, just I have not experienced it. I’m sorry that you are mad, I hope you are in a good place in life and enjoying it.
If not, and your in a bad place then feel free to shoot me a dm on Instagram and we can talk. Take care.
@@thaticelandicguy Vloggers on youtube do studio work, they post 8 bit on youtube.... So i would buy a6400 plus 3 lenses for the same price, new features in zv-e1 needs crop, and in auto... And Vloggers outside can't use it... Overheats after 5 minutes 4k 60... Dan Watson review...so, old stuff repacked with "ai features", old screen, no evf, photo is meh... A6400 plus 3 lenses or A7c plus one lens or two.. You won't see the difference on youtube, tik tok or Instagram... But i sleep better
Wait, does this mean that I payed 1500€ extra for the A7SIII just to get an extra memory card slot? 🥲 Very impressive camera indeed, although I'm not exactly sure who it's for 🤷♂ I would imagine that "vloggers" buying a camera at this price point would expect it to be a one stop shop for everything, but the 12 MP doesn't really cut it for photos in my opinion. It's starting to get really confusing to know which sony camera to get these days 😂
So this camera isn't a photo camera at all. It doesn't even have a EVF, which i rely on a lot for photography. But yea the A7siii has CF card reader, two memory slots, probably better heat management? A bigger grip that some people like, but on the other hand the E1 is smaller that some people will also prefer
